Back When . . . Then
. . . NOW
Today, Mark Allan (Director of
Photography) and Susan Giacomini Allan
(Executive Producer) operate Essanay Film

Maintaining the family tradition, their
youngest son, Stephen, participates in the
family business as cameraman and sound
recordist. As a full-service
production company, Essanay provides
location crews and post production for networks,
non-profits, and commercial clients.
The Allan father-son team
covers the Superbowl for NFL Films.
Susan directs and
is featured in Good Medicine, a
website and film on the power
of
social support during
treatment for breast cancer.
